With just three places separating the sides in the lower reaches of the Premier League table, Everton’s clash with Crystal Palace at Goodison Park on Monday evening is the very definition of a relegation six-pointer.

The Toffees looked like they were making light of their controversial 10-point deduction in the lead up to Christmas, however, their form has regressed of late and their loss to Man City last week extended their winless run to seven games in the league.

In fact, the Blues only triumph in 11 previous attempts in all competitions came at Crystal Palace’s expense in the FA Cup replay on Merseyside in January. However, with Roy Hodgson expected to be sacked and replaced by Austrian Oliver Glasner before Monday, the Eagles could be wielding the fabled new manager bounce when they head north again.

As per the usual spin, we’ve pulled together some Everton vs Crystal Palace stats for the game which should set you up nicely to fill out some bet builder slips with extra confidence.

🏆 Match stats: Match result markets best avoided?

Crystal Palace were a little unlucky to have lost at Goodison Park in January having racked up more attempts and enjoyed more possession than their hosts, and their recent overall record (0 wins in 6) against the Toffees makes for uninspiring reading from the Eagles’ perspective. However, the managerial switcheroo at Palace brings complications in terms of predicting outcomes and previous head-to-head form goes out the window a little when the new manager bounce is factored in. Instead, it feels smarter to plump for goals and we recommend backing both defences to concede on Merseyside. While results are never guaranteed, we can usually safely expect teams to play with more energy when there is a change in the dugout. Everton have conceded at least two goals in five of their last seven league assignments and a Palace side with a fresh injection of enthusiasm should have chances to score – even without key attacking duo Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze. Sean Dyche’s Blues rarely fail to score on home soil themselves however, and they were kept off the scoresheet just twice in their last nine outings at Goodison (by Newcastle & Villa). Everton also rank as a top-eight outfit for shots mustered per home game (15.4) and they sit in the same position for xG on their own patch (22.0), highlighting a consistent ability to manufacture chances on Merseyside. Alongside BTTS, Palace might be worth assessing as an option in the +2.0 goal handicap stakes. The last four meetings between the clubs included two scoreless draws and two wins for Everton by a one-goal margin, and with the sides expected to be well-matched again on Monday, the Eagles could make the most of a sizable advantage.

Predictions:

⚽ Both teams to score @ 2.0

⚽ Crystal Palace (+2 handicap) @ 1.30

🎯 Shooting stats: Look to the flanks for inspiration

Everton’s strikers haven’t had much luck in the final third of late. Dominic Calvert Lewin failed to register a single shot on target in any of his last four appearances, while alternative centre-forward Beto hasn’t clocked an accurate attempt in any game since December 19th. Winger Jack Harrison stands out as a better shot market option with his teammates firing blanks and the 27-year-old managed to get at least one strike on target in three of his last four runouts for the Toffees. For Palace, Brazilian teenager Matheus Franca catches the eye in the same market. The 19-year-old dazzled and frustrated in equal measure in Palace’s loss to Chelsea last week, though he did find his range with one of his three shots against the Londoners and his speed could trouble a static Everton defence. On the opposite flank, Jordan Ayew has been quietly going about his business in efficient manner and the experienced Ghanaian has been good for one or more shots on target in each of Crystal Palace’s last two Premier League fixtures (vs Brighton & Chelsea). Elsewhere, it might be worth watching out for Odsonne Edouard’s name when the team sheets are released. The Frenchman had six shots, two of which hit the target when Palace last faced Everton in the league in November and the Toffees defenders might find the 26-year-old just as tricky to contain if he starts.

Predictions:

⚽ Jack Harrison to have 1+ shots on target @ 1.83

⚽ Matheus Franca to have 1+ shots on target @ 2.10

⚽ Jordan Ayew to have 1+ shots on target @ 2.40

🚩 Corners stats: Everton to lead the corners charge

Everton and Crystal Palace have already met three times previously this season in the FA Cup (twice) and the league, and a minimum of six corners were awarded on each occasion. The Eagles won 16 corners to Everton’s eight across the teams’ pair of encounters at Selhurst Park, however, the Toffees dominated the count (5-1) when they hosted Palace most recently at Goodison Park on January 17th. Indeed, Sean Dyche’s Blues have been consistent enough in that regard on home soil, where they have won at least four corners in eight of their last nine assignments, while Palace have conceded at least four of them in six of their last eight contests on the road. With home advantage to enjoy, Everton should be able to put the set-piece squeeze on Palace again on Monday and backing the Merseysiders to win over 4.5 corners at the Eagles’ expense looks achievable. It might also be worth including Everton to win more corners than Crystal Palace overall for the second time in succession at Goodison Park

Predictions:

⚽ Over 4.5 Everton corners @ 1.44

⚽ Everton corner match bet @ 1.50

🛑 Fouls stats: Midfield skirmish to produce fouls?

Everton’s trio of meetings with Crystal Palace earlier in the campaign were all keenly contested, producing three, five and five cards respectively, and when you glance at some of the names manning the midfield on both sides of the dividing line, it’s easy to see why the tackles flew. In Idrissa Gueye, James Garner and Amadou Onana, Sean Dyche has three tough-tackling options to deploy in the midfield battleground, and all three players have been hitting opponents hard this term. 22-year-old Garner has fouled at least once in 13 of his last 16 Premier League appearances and he gave away three free kicks in the reverse league fixture between Everton and Palace in November. The former Man Utd academy starlet could be a useful pick-up to commit 1+ fouls again. Belgian Amadou Onana meanwhile, can often time his tackles awkwardly, and he has fouled at least twice in each of his last four top tier starts for the Toffees. He could repeat that trick here. For Crystal Palace, new signing Adam Wharton and foul-market favourites Jefferson Lerma deserve the most attention. Wharton marked his full Premier League debut against Chelsea with seven tackles and one foul last Monday and the promising 19-year-old should clear a one-foul target with room to spare at Everton. Bet builder regular Jefferson Lerma committed at least two fouls in each of his last six runouts for Palace. In fact, he sinned a bone-crunching 19 times in total across those six fixtures and his aggressive streak could land him bother at least twice again at Goodison Park.

Predictions:

⚽ James Garner to commit 2+ fouls @ 1.33

⚽ Amadou Onana to commit 2+ fouls @ 1.50

⚽ Adam Wharton to commit 1+ fouls @ 1.33

⚽ Jefferson Lerma to commit 2+ fouls @ 1.91
